Vegas and Onwards

I've been in Vegas for the last ~2 weeks staying at Chewy's house again. I played the Festa al Lago WPT at Bellagio but busted quickly. Other than that I've been golfing a fair bit, partying, and dropping some NBA Jam knowledge on the team. The big highlight of the trip was Randal (RandALLin), who was staying at chewy's with us, shipping the WPT for $831k! An epic day of sweating the final table and then celebrating occurred. There are various videos on the internet of Randal being interviewed where they show clips of us acting like jackasses in the stands cheering him on, and I'm sure at least some of our shenanigans are a lock to make the WPT broadcast when it airs (especially as we now have a man on the inside), in addition to Randal doing his Mike Sexton impression in the middle of a hand.

Tomorrow Tony, Dan, and I are leaving for the big trip I talked about in my last post. Obviously we are super pumped! In addition to the GTL sessions and partying that will obviously take place there are also 3-4 poker tournaments for us to play that should be really soft. On top of all that a bunch of the Aussie guys are now doing a big chunk of the trip with us as well which is even more awesome. I don't have a whole lot else to talk at you all about right now, but I'll be tweeting/blogging about the trip a bit. Holler if you're going to be in any of these places at the same time as us!
